Supreme Court Suspends OSHA Vaccine-for-Testing ETS

On Jan. 13, 2022, U.S. Supreme Court issued an order suspending OSHA’s vaccine-for-testing emergency temporary standard (ETS).

The ETS would require employers with at least 100 employees to ensure workers are either vaccinated or get tested weekly for COVID-19 and wear masks. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals had previously lifted the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals’ prior stay on the ETS. The U.S. Supreme Court’s order reinstates the stay on the ETS, thereby suspending implementation of the ETS pending further review.
